Market Harborough’s very own orchestra, MHO, is preparing to give its 25th concert. This will be under the baton of Stephen Bell. It will be held on Saturday 28 January at 7.30pm at Harborough Methodist Church, Northampton Road, MH.

Directing this play has been a joy. So far, we have been learning lines and creating an understanding of the plot and characters within the warmth and comfort of our home. Each taking a turn at hosting the cast and offering refreshments. Joyous? Why? You may ask. Because as of January the players will be returning to the KGSH venue. We will begin the arduous part of producing a play and creating a performance for our audiences at the end of March.

Hello all. By the time you read this ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’ will either be on the verge of, or in full swing production. Tickets (£6) are available at the Post Office, Kibworth Grammar School Hall or by email/text to maryjo1952@hotmail.co.uk or 07710 112346

Despite yet another challenging year, the National Garden Scheme donated over £3.11 million to important cancer and nursing charities. Support for these charities is crucial and your visits to our gardens throughout the year are so very important to generate these vital funds. Thank you so much for your support in 2022 and I hope we will see more of you during 2023.

(Starting this January)

With the beginning of a new year, we are starting to look forward to several exciting events that are to be held here in Smeeton at both the church and the village hall.

A large metal unit has now appeared outside the Co-op on High Street next to the defribrillator as can bee seen in the picture above. But what is it?

Smeeton Westerby’s Christmas celebrations started with a bang with our very successful Christmas Fayre. The hall looked really festive. Santa had arrived and was waiting patiently in his grotto. The stall holders had done a wonderful job setting up and displaying their goods and so all that were needed were customers! Knowing that there were other much bigger fêtes on, we opened our doors with some trepidation. However, to our great joy, so many people started arriving.

The short answer is probably “No”.
